This is an extreme infohazard for me, a nearly-25-year-old who decided to live in a big city and therefore does not know anyone his age who owns a house.

Joey Politano @JosephPolitano This is an extreme infohazard for me, a nearly-25-year- old who decided to live in a big city and therefore does not know anyone his age who owns a house. A couple weeks ago someone told me they had bought a house at 19 and sold it at 23 and I felt like I was talking to an alien Daryl Fairweather @FairweatherPhD • Apr 21 Nearly one-third (30%) of 25-year-olds owned their home in 2022. That's slightly higher than homeownership rates for millennials (28%) and Gen Xers (27%) when they were 25, and slightly lower than the rate for baby boomers (32%) when they were 25. redfin.com/news/gen-z-mil... 12:24 PM .

Lovecraftian Infohazard

It's a common theme in fiction - particularly horror fiction & the 'weird'. For instance, the "Yellow Sign" in the play-within-the-book The King in Yellow causes those who see it to become thralls to the titular King, and the play of the same name in that book causes anyone who reads its fragments to go mad. Likewise, the infohazard is a common element in Lovecraft's work, usually as media, although in Facts Concerning the Late Arthur Jerimyn & His Family, it is a secret about the protagonist's ancestry. However, the infohazard is not unique to horror fiction - it also appears in theology (for instance, in the form of the magical properties of the true name of god & the ability for a mental image of the ain sof to physically blind people, in jewish theology).

Information Hazards: A Typology of Potential Harms from Knowledge by Nick Bostrom

Information Hazards: A Typology of Potential Harms from Knowledge Abstract Nick Bostrom Faculty of Philosophy & Oxford Martin School Oxford University [Published in Review of Contemporary Philosophy, Vol. 10 (2011): pp. 44-79] www.nickbostrom.com Information hazards are risks that arise from the dissemination or the potential dissemination of true information that may cause harm or enable some agent to cause harm. Such hazards are often subtler than direct physical threats, and, as a consequence, are easily overlooked. They can, however, be important. This paper surveys the terrain and proposes a taxonomy. 1. Introduction There is, these days, a commonly held presumption in favor of knowledge, truth, and the uncovering and dissemination of information. It is rare find somebody who self-identifies as an obscurantist or who openly espouses obscurantism as a legitimate policy instrument of wide utility. Even reactionaries rarely object to this general favoring of information. Consider some particularly intransigent creationist who opposes the teaching of evolution theory in public schools. He does not constitute a counterexample. For he does not believe that evolution theory is a truth to be concealed. Rather, he believes evolution theory an error that ought to be replaced with more accurate information. Therefore, although he happens unwittingly to stand in the way of truth, he need not disagree with the claim that the truth should be promoted. The creationist, too, is a truth- lover, albeit one whose affections are unreciprocated. Although nobody makes a brief for ignorance generally, there are many special cases in which ignorance is cultivated-in order, for example, to protect national security, sexual innocence, jury impartiality; to preserve anonymity for patients, clients, reviewers, and voters; to create suspense in films and novels; to protect trade secrets; to measure the placebo effect and avoid various
